perhaps that's true, but i think more likely having worked in the white house, what happens when these folks are re-elected is they immediately think about their legacy. does president obama really want middle class americans to see their tax rates go up even if temporarily and potentially a recession? that will be on his watch. >> it'll also be on the republican's watch. >> right. but he's the leader. he's the one with the bully pulpit. >> but he's made it very clear that he doesn't want taxes to go up for 98% and if congress doesn't act and in particular the house doesn't act, the senate is prepared to do that. if the house doesn't act, i don't think they will win that argument, one. point two is in terms of getting to the deficit numbers, it's not just revenues. if you go back to where the president was in august of 2011, he was willing to go for every $3 in spending cuts $1 in revenue. the way you get at the $1.6 trillion figure is by getting into significant entitlement reform. and everything as he has said, the president has said is on the table. medicare and medicaid, they're on

it is also worth noting that president obama's performance among white voters in midwest states like ohio, like wisconsin, like iowa is completely different than it was nationally and substantially different in states measured by the exit poll. >> quickly, i have to get your comments on what's happening between senator john mccain and a few other senators and the president. john mccain was on the "today" show this morning. he was asked, mark, about susan rice and his already -- i guess he's saying he would stand in the way of her being secretary of state. he was asked about condoleezza rice and supporting her during obvious controversial times. let's play that. >> you said opponents of condoleezza rice were expressing sour grapes after an election loss. why is this different? >> because every intelligence agency in the world, including the british, believe that iraq had weapons of mass destruction. that was an entirely different situation. four americans died that didn't have to die. >> so, mark, the double-standard at least as some alleged here, senator mccain does not see it. >> th

author of "what's the matter with white people"? that question seems apt. the l.a. times just posted a report on mitt romney's conference call today with top donors. it says romney, quote, attributed his rival's victory to, quote, the gifts the obama administration had given to blacks, hispanics and young voters during obama's first term. obama, romney argued, had been very generous, quotes around it, to blacks, hispanics and young voters. i once heard a canadian election saying they lost election to people that wanted to stay as part of canada because of ethnic voters. that means not french, not english. this guy, paul ryan who i don't think is right for prime time yet by any means talking about the urban vote. now, they won the other side because they got the most votes. because they won fair and square, which is the first thing ryan said. why do you have to step on his own headline. they won fair and square by saying, oh, it was the black vote. basically, that's what he's saying. >> chris, let me just say, as for romney's comments, i'm still waiting for my gift.
